Assuming you mean Licorice root (not the candy), it is good for soothing the stomach and general digestion, which is how it is most commonly used in the form of DGL (Deglycyrrhizinated Licorice root extract).
General Licorice is good for liver health, cardiovascular health, and it even helps to clean the colon.

It's a natural laxative or atleast that's what I was told. It might be an old wives tale.
